Reasons to Choose cieTrade

Working with the customer service at cieTrade has been a team effort. We have been able to work with them not only in every aspect of our daily work flow, but also customized reporting as well.

Pros:

One of the most important items for everyone to take into account when selecting a software company for your business is how well they understand your business, and that every company has unique processes that may translate into specialized reporting. Cietrade has provided an environment of being business partners and listens to your individual needs.

Cons:

Each user can customize their cieTrade folders, which is a great plus, but when updates take place you need to reset all of your folders again.

Reasons for switching to cieTrade

As our company grew, which involved taking several different software packages per division and having to integrate plant and brokerage nuances for the business, cieTrade we felt was the best option.

Great Software!

Ratings Breakdown

Ease of use

Pros:

Our business has been using cieTrade for about 8 years now, and this software has made our daily processes so much more efficient. We mainly use it for dispatching, shipping, receiving, billing and invoicing. We also use it to keep track of export loads with container photos. I’d say the most useful feature for me is the ability to get all of the billing info imported into our accounting software and being able to generate a journal entry for sales, expenses and adjustments to close out the month. Anytime I’ve ever had to contact tech support, they have been very prompt in response and are always very friendly. I highly recommend cieTrade to anyone in the paper recycling industry.

Cons:

Software updates are by customer demand only not on a scheduled release.
